Hi all,

We've made the following changes to the 1.9 package repository layout:

Deleted the 1.9/lindsey repos
-----------------------------

The BioC 1.9 repos contain no more packages that depend on a
Lindsey repos hence the decision to remove this repos from the
list of 1.9 repos.
 From now the 1.9 repos are:
  - bioc (188 packages)
  - data/annotation (635 packages)
  - data/experiment (12 packages)
  - omegahat (6 packages)
  - monograph (10 packages)
An index for each of these repos can be found at:
  http://bioconductor.org/packages/1.9/<name_of_repos>/


Made the 1.9/monograph a "normal" repos
---------------------------------------

This repos used to be an "hidden" repos i.e. it was not "scanned" by
biocLite(). Now:
  - it's scanned by biocLite()
  - it's listed by biocReposList() (starting with Biobase 1.11.26)
  - it can be mirrored like any other 1.9 repos (see our "Mirror Howto"
    page here:
      http://bioconductor.org/download/mirrors/mirror-howto.html
    for more information about how to mirror the Bioconductor package
    repositories).

Finally, the yeastExprData package has been moved from the 1.9/monograph
to the 1.9/data/experiment repos.

Cheers,

H.
